VaticanNews portal (November 13, 2025) reports that antipope Robert Prevost (styled “Leo XIV”) issued a chirograph establishing the “Apostleship of the Sea” as a canonical legal entity under the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development. The article claims this body will coordinate pastoral care for maritime workers, citing as precedent Pius X’s 1914 motu proprio Iam pridem, John Paul II’s Stella Maris (1997), and Bergoglio’s bureaucratic restructuring. The text emphasizes “human mobility” and “integral human development” through consultations with “national directors” since 2022. This administrative reshuffling exemplifies the conciliar sect’s substitution of supernatural grace with naturalistic social work.
Canonical Fraud in the Neo-Church’s Naval Bureaucracy
The chirograph’s invocation of Pius X’s 1914 document constitutes theological forgery. When the true Pope established maritime ministry, he did so ad maiorem Dei gloriam (for the greater glory of God) through convert-making apostolate, not bureaucratic management. Contrast Pius X’s mandate with this new structure’s stated purpose: “Spiritual care” is reduced to sociological accompaniment, devoid of conversion imperative. The 1914 text focused on providing sacraments to sailors “deprived of parish life” (Canon 216 §1 CIC 1917), whereas the neo-structure emphasizes “human mobility” – a modernist term rejecting Pius XI’s condemnation of “religious wanderings” in Quas Primas (1925).
The consultations were led and coordinated by the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development
This admission proves the operation’s revolutionary character. The Dicastery derives from Bergoglio’s Praedicate Evangelium (2022) – a pseudo-constitution establishing the conciliar sect’s definitive break with Catholic ecclesiology. As Pius IX solemnly taught, “The Church is an unequal society in which God alone governs by means of His appointed ministers” (Syllabus of Errors, Proposition 19). The alleged “consultations with national directors” (2022-2025) impose democratic processes upon hierarchical authority, violating Leo XIII’s condemnation of modern democracy in Immortale Dei (1885).
Naturalism Replaces the Sacramental Economy
The article’s repeated references to “people of the sea” expose a fundamentally anthropological heresy. True pastoral care addresses souls – not sociological categories. Nowhere does the text mention:
- Administration of Last Rites to dying sailors
- Mass attendance obligations for Catholic mariners
- Danger of mixed marriages in port cities
- Mortal sin of missing Sunday Eucharist without grave cause
Instead, the modernist focus on “itinerant peoples” and “human mobility” reduces the Church’s mission to social work – precisely condemned by Pius XI as “neglecting the one thing necessary” (Divini Redemptoris, 1937). The conciliar sect’s maritime ministry operates according to the Masonic principle: Ordo ab Chao (Order from Chaos), creating bureaucratic solutions for manufactured problems.
St. John Paul II’s motu proprio Stella Maris (January 31, 1997)
The reference to Wojtyła’s document demonstrates doctrinal continuity in apostasy. His 1997 text replaced sacramental theology with ecumenical dialogue, urging chaplains to “cooperate with other Christian communities” (Art. 8) – a violation of Mortalium Animos (Pius XI, 1928) forbidding common worship with heretics. The current decree intensifies this betrayal by placing maritime ministry under the Dicastery for Human Development – an office dedicated to implementing UN Sustainable Development Goals rather than extra Ecclesiam nulla salus.
Illegitimate Authority and Invalid Legislation
The article’s claim that “Pope Leo decrees” constitutes blasphemous fiction. Canon 188 §4 (1917) automatically deprives manifest heretics of office – a fate suffered by all Vatican II claimants. As St. Robert Bellarmine established: “A manifest heretic cannot be pope. The reason is that he is not a member of the Church, and consequently cannot be its head” (De Romano Pontifice). Prevost’s chirograph lacks canonical force, being issued by an anti-pope presiding over an occupied See.
Moreover, the invoked “Apostolic Constitution Praedicate Evangelium” (2022) lacks validity, being promulgated by Bergoglio – himself a non-Catholic under Canon 2314 §1 (1917) for heresy. Pius XII’s Vacantis Apostolicae Sedis (1945) forbids popes from altering curial structures during sede vacante – a condition persisting since 1958. Thus, the Dicastery for Human Development exists as a revolutionary committee, not Catholic office.
The document’s silence about Russia’s consecration – demanded by supposed “Fatima” apparitions – ironically confirms its Masonic origins. While exploiting pious sentiment about seafarers, the conciliar sect ignores Heaven’s commands, fulfilling the “Masonic Operation Fatima” hypothesis from the provided files: A strategy to divert attention from modernist apostasy through sentimental devotions.
Omission of the Kingship of Christ: Apostasy by Default
Nowhere does the chirograph invoke Christ’s social reign – the cornerstone of authentic maritime ministry. Pius XI’s Quas Primas (1925) established that “Nations will be happy when Christ is acknowledged as King”, requiring Catholic captains to display sacred images on bridges and hold Sunday muster for Mass. The new document replaces this with vague “pastoral accompaniment”, ignoring the missionary mandate: “Going therefore, teach ye all nations… teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you” (Matthew 28:19-20).
The conciliar sect’s maritime ministry constitutes spiritual piracy – plundering Catholic terminology to advance the anti-church’s globalist agenda. As crews face modern slavery and moral dangers, the neo-ministers offer sociology rather than sanctifying grace. This betrayal fulfils Pius X’s warning: “The Modernist reformer is a road paver for apostasy” (Lamentabili, 1907).
